Solange Lwashiga Furaha

Solange is the Executive Secretary of Caucus des Femmes Congolaises du Sud-Kivu pour la Paix (South Kivu Congolese Women’s Caucus for Peace). The Caucus brings together female leaders from across the districts of the province to call on Congo to respect the national and international commitments it has made on gender equality. Solange is working to ensure women are included in all peace talks. She believes this is the only way her country will eventually find peace.
